OFFICIAL Kelma Tuilagi

I think that's a bit far-fetched. It comes back to the inherent bias- if let's say it was a winger who did that, the ref would have double checked. But he knew it was a 10 gamer backrower so he just assumed he didn't get it. Same with the Leilua no-try.

The video ref basically went in with the agenda that he hasn't scored and it was a mid-air tackle. There is always a pressure on them to get to a quick decision and the video ref's procedure, thought process and result was all wrong and imcompetent.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist so I put it down to human bias and gross incompetence.

haha yeah...just trying to rattle the cage a little 😆...but no question there is an unconscious bias happening here...happens to us very often

I also knew my re-edited video would create a bit of chat on the scenario & no doubt some banter....it's started already on Twitter

sadly too many obvious decisions (refs/bunker) go against us, and this continues year after year😡

Twice now this year. Warriors was a try, not referred. Yesterday either a try ( which I am sure he scored correctly ) or a penalty try. Neither given. We should be on 8 points. Bunker is a joke., and so is the NRL.

Terrible decision - try every day of the week.

If the ref awarded the try by his on field decision...the bunker reviews it and found Lomax interfered with the player scoring a try,then that try in most cases would be a penalty try...however I still cant understand that the try wasnt awarded after the review,the Tigers were given a penalty after the on field decision was made....
I think some of these clowns make the rules up to suit themselves because 1/2 of them wouldnt know what the bloody rules are anyway....

Someone will have to explain to me how you can bounce a football, without letting go of it, but not score a try. Physically impossible! Do we need to dig up the remains of Isaac Newton to explain it to the bunker?

Secondly as everyone has said - either Lomax commits a foul with a mid-air tackle, in which case it is a penalty-try, or he does not commit a foul and it's a knock-on. Please don't anyone tell me the Bunker thought Kelma would not have scored if Lomax had not tackled him illegally (deemed illegal per bunker penalty).

Just plain ineptitude and illogic from these apparent professionals.

Unfortunately we had lots of other opportunities to win the match, but Tigers are not a team that can do it all without some 50/50s falling our way.

Kelma decision = game changer

 

[Stevec]

For gods sake madge say something your supporters need some fight

 

[Tiger Woods]

It should have been a penalty try

Bunker were dragons supporters
There should be an investigation 😉

Just seen an annesley briefing as usual only picks topics he can easily explain no mention of tigers

 

[tiger_one]

Is our club seeking some explanation?

Extremely disappointing it wasn't even brought up in Annesley's briefing ..
Can we take printouts to NRL HQ ??
And then laminate half a dozen around the building and protest

Only thing I can think of is the bunker had an angle that showed him losing the ball which we didn't see. The angle we saw it looks like his left hand never leaves the ball. To not show this angle leaves fans skeptical.

Always a try. Had at least one hand on the ball until it touches the grass.

Overturning it....
Have to show the angle / proove it.

I know it’s not the Tulagi decision but just catching up on the Warriors / Raiders game.
If there was ever a decision to cost a match the Raiders have it in the bag.
Lodge gets hit with a high wrapping tackle.
Ref says play on.
Lodge stays down.
Bunker looks at it and then puts him on report.
Penalty Warriors.

If not a try it had to be a penalty try. If the player was so close to scoring that you needed the bunker, then he was interfered with enough by foul play to be awarded a penalty try.

I have never seen the bunker gloss over a grounding decision so quickly, ever. If it was the Panthers, Storm or Roosters they would have shown it 10x. That was too strange to be a straight decision IMO. There needs to be an investigation! Where's Tooves when you need him?
